TESTIMOI^IALS 

TO THE 

CAPTAIN, OFFICERS AND CREW 

OF THE 

UNITED STATES SLOOP OF WAR " KEARSARGE." 



The special committee appointed by the Chamber, 
7th July, 1864, to report " in what manner it should 
express its appreciation of the gallantry of the cap- 
tain, officers and crew of the United States sloop of 
war ' Kearsarge,' and of their services to the shipping 
and commercial interests of the Chamber," originally 
consisted of Messrs. Low, Nye, ^Marshall, Grinnell 
and Blunt. 

This committee submitted to the Chamber, at its 
meeting of the 6th of October, the following 

REPORT. 

At a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, held on 
the 7th July last, the undersigned were appointed a 



committee to report to the Chamber, at a special or 
general meeting, "in what manner it should express 
its appreciation of the gallantry of Captain John A. 
WiNSLOW, his officers and crew of the ship of war 
' Kearsarge,' and of the service rendered to the ship- 
ping and commercial interests of the country in the 
destruction of the 'Alabama.' " 

In the discharge of this duty your committee have 
prepared and now submit to the Chamber the draft of 
a letter, which, if adopted, as a suitable expression of 
the sentiments of the Chamber, it is proposed, when 
signed by the President and Secretary, to send to Cap- 
tain WiNSLOW. 

Furthermore, your committee have undertaken, as 
preliminary to such other action as the Chamber may 
see fit to adopt, to raise the sum of twenty-five thou- 
sand DOLLARS for the purchase of medals or other tes- 
timonials which it may be deemed proper by the 
Chamber to present to the commander, officers and 
crew of the " Kearsarge," as a further proof of the high 
appreciation in which their " gallantry and service" 
are held ; and to the end that by such tokens an event 
of great interest in the naval history of the country 
may be kept in lasting and honored remembrance.

The committee further reported a large sum of sub- 
scriptions, amounting to over twenty-three thousand 



dollars, ($23,000,) and announced their readiness to 
receive any further sums, which should be sent to the 
Treasurer, selected by them, Charles H. Marshall, 
Esq. 



\_Lctter to Captain John A. Winslow.] 

New- York, Octoher Gth, 1864. 



Dear Sir 



In behalf of the Chamber of Commerce of the State 
of New- York, I have the honor to tender to you, and 
through you to the officers and crew of the U. S. 
sloop of war " Kearsarge," the congratulations and 
thanks of the Chamber for the destruction of the 
"Alabama." 

Many circumstances combined to make this event 
especially gratifying to the merchants of this city. 
Whatever may be affirmed or denied in respect to the 
character of this vessel, of her origin there is no ques- 
tion. Built at the ship-yard of the Messrs. Laird, 
(whose senior is a member of the British Parliament,) 
manned with British sailors, (and afterwards armed 
with British guns,) she left the port of Liverpool on 
the 29th day of July, 1862, and entered at once upon 
her career of devastation. 

The proclamation of neutrality issued by the Queen 
of Great Britain preceded her departure, and were it 
not that the " Alabama" sailed from the port of Liver- 
pool, one of the principal seaports of a great commer- 
cial nation, she might almost be regarded as. a repre- 



seutative vessel sent forth to assert and illustrate tlie 
views of neutrality just then proclaimed. Sailing at 
times under the British, and sometimes under the so- 
called Confederate flag, her appointed work has been 
to burn the merchant vessels of the United States, re- 
gardless of all forms of law, committing to the flames 
without condemnation the property of friend and foe 
alike. 

In the progress of this raid upon the shipping of the 
United States, she occasionally sought succor in the 
colonial ports of Great Britain, and everywhere her 
officers and crew were received and treated as those 
who had done a praiseworthy work in destroying the 
commerce of a great rival. So far was this sj^irit of 
kindness and courtesy carried, that the destruction of a 
vessel bearing the British flag in the Straits of Malacca 
provoked but little complaint, and British merchants 
have been content patiently to bear the losses inflicted 
on them by an illegitimate wanderer on the seas, be- 
cause of the greater damage done to the commerce of 
a rival. 

This Chamber has been wont to regard the mainte- 
nance of friendly relations with the nations of the earth 
as of paramount importance, and to look upon com- 
merce as the greatest promoter of amity, tending to 
the increase of civilization and Christianity throughout 
the world. 

How much of the hope generated by a long course 
of intimate and profitable intercourse with Great Bri- 
tain, events of the three years past have served to 
banish, it is not for me to say ; but it is safe to aver, that 
no vessel ever put to sea from a port in Great Britain, 



armed to cruise against the commerce of the United 
States, that has done half so much to embitter the feel- 
ings of the people of the United States toward the 
people of Great Britain as the " Alabama." 

This Chamber, therefore, is heartily glad that the 
" Kearsarge," under your command, has sent this pest 
of the ocean to her merited doom, and would that all 
the bad feelings she has engendered had gone down 
with her. 

This Chamber does not stop to consider at length 
the character of the act by which the commander of 
the rebel cruiser was rescued from the captor ; but his- 
tory will have a place for the " party of pleasure" that 
was present when she sank beneath the waves, and 
will extend to both the rescuer and the rescued a like 
claim to unenviable distinction. 

Both may be sustained by the same public sentiment 
that elevated the commander of the "Alabama" to the 
rank of a naval hero, and did so elevate him when his 
exploits were limited to the burning of American mer- 
chantmen, and both may be condemned in every tri- 
bunal where justice holds an equal scale. 

The conflict between the " Kearsar<?e" and "Ala- 
'bama" afforded other grounds of satisfaction. 

It marks a new epoch in naval warfare, and adds a 
brilliant page to the naval history of the nation. 

This Chamber would recognise the skill, coolness 
and intrepidity with which the " Kearsarge" was ma- 
noeuvred in the combat with her formidable foe, and 
takes pleasure in making this record of the event in its 
book of minutes. A committee of this Chamber has 
in charge the preparation of a suitable testimonial for 
yourself, the ofiicers and crew of the " Kearsarge," 



which, at some early day, they hope to have the honor 
of transmitting. 

A. A. Low, 

President 
John Austin Stevens, Jr., 

Secretary. 

To Captain John A. Winslow, 

Commanding United States 

Sloop oftvar '■'- Kearsargey 

The report was accepted by the Chamber, and the 
letter unanimously adopted at its meeting of the 6th 
October, and the committee continued, with power to 
distribute, in their judgment, the funds collected. 

A handsomely engrossed copy of the letter, signed 
by the President and Secretary, was forwarded to 
Capt. Winslow, and the following reply received, 
which was submitted to the Chamber on the 1st De- 
cember, and ordered to be spread on the minutes : 

\_LeUer of Capt. Joun A. Winslow.] 

RoxBURy, November 25, 1864. 
Dear Sir : 

I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of 
a diploma from the Chamber of Commerce of New- 
York, tendering to me and the ofricers and crew of 
the " Kearsarge" congratulations and thanks for the 
destruction of the steamer "Alabama" by the "Kear- 
sarge," under my command. 

Be pleased to convey to the Chamber of Commerce 
my thanks in behalf of the officers and crew of the 



" Kearsarge" for the complimentary manner in which 
they have referred to our services. 

The destruction of the " Alabama" is an event which 
I do not affect to say, under the attending circum- 
stances, was of great importance in influencing our 
foreign relations at the time, aside from the benefit 
derived from ridding the ocean of the most destructive 
pest upon our commerce. 
I have the honor to be, 

Very respectfully, your ob't serv't, 

John A. Winslow, 

Capt U. S. K 
A. A. Low, Esq., 

President of the Chamber of Commerce of N. Y. 

To extend the influence of the committee, and facili- 
tate its performance of the labor entrusted to it, five , 
additional members were selected, with whose aid the 
remaining business was accomplished. These gentle- 
men were Messrs. S. B. Chittenden, Henry A. Smythe, 
A. C. Richards, Samuel D. Babcock and Arthur 
Leary. 

When your committee first undertook the collection 
of the fund, and left the matter under the considera- 
tion of our principal underwriters, important subscrip- 
tions were made of money, to be divided in the same 
proportion among the captain, officers and crew of the 
'' Kearsarge" as prize money is divided, and this paper 
was continued until the subscription was nearly com- 
pleted. 

The control over the distribution of this fund, raised 
wholly through the efforts of your committee, was con- 



10 

ferred upon them by tlie Chamber at its meeting of the 
1st December, and the subscribers, without exception, 
acquiesced in this disposition of the matter whenever 
called on to do so. The consent of ahnost every one 
being obtained, the committee proceeded to the duty 
of dividing the amount. 

On the 7th December the committee was called 
together, and paid a personal visit to the gallant com- 
mander, Capt. WiNSLOW, whom they found to be as 
urbane as a gentleman as he is gallant as a sailor, and 
in their agreeable interview were pleasantly reminded 
of the truth of the old assertion, that tlie greatest 
courage is most often allied to the most gentle de- 
meanor. 

The fund of $25,000 having been completed, the 
committee apportioned the same in the following man- 
ner : 



To the Captain, $10,000 

To the Ofiacers, 10,000 

To the Crew, 5,000 



$25,000 



The President was requested to address Captain 
WiNSLOW, and obtain from him a schedule of aj^por- 
tionment based on a scale of service and merit. 

On the 30th January the following letter to the Cap- 
tain was adopted by the committee, and by their order 
fairly engrossed and signed by each member, and 
during the past month forwarded to him, with the sum 
of $10,000 in 7 3-10 United States Treasury notes.

" Alabama." 

The undersigned, acting under the appointment of

The Treasurer of the Fund contributed by the mer- 
chants of New- York to reward the services of the cap-

Note of Instructions. — The above draft should be 
signed at foot and on the back. The signature should 
be certified to as correct by Commodore John A. 
WiNSLOW, Brooklyn Navy Yard. When this is impos- 
sible, by some Government official. 

The following is the reply received from the chief 
executive officer : 

U. S. Steamer "Iosco," 

Newbern, North Carolina, 

March lUh, 1865. 
Gentlemen : 

I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your 
communication of the 30th January, made over the 
signature of the President, and with the seal of the 
" Corporation of the Chamber of Commerce of the 
State of New- York," also of the enclosed check for 
twelve hundred dollars. 

Such testimonials are rarely conferred upon officers 



15 

who merely succeed in the performance of then- duty. 
I trust that this distinguished recognition of dutiful 
service may encourage not only myself but all others 
to renewed efforts to attain the historical reputation 
thus conferred upon them. 

I am, gentlemen, 

Your ob't s't, 

James S. Thornton, 

Lieut. Commander. 
A. A, Low, Esq., 

President^ 

and Gentlemen of the Committee. 



The award and the names of the subscribers to the 
fund are annexed to the report. 

In closing, your committee beg leave to express the 
great pleasure they have had in the performance of a 
duty so grateful to every member of this great com- 
mercial community as the recompense, partial though 
it be, of a gallant commander and a gallant crew, for 
the destruction of a vessel which had done so much to 
its injury as the " Alabama," and the hope that this 
officer W rewarded by the Government, for his signal 
service, by a higher command, may continue to meet 
with that success and promotion which belongs to 
activity, courage and sterling merit. 

All which is respectfully submitted. 

A. A. Low, 

Chairman. 
John Austin Stevens, Jr., 

Secretary.
